THE PAINTING

Say you are looking at a piece of artwork and your natural instinct  is to criticize whether it is good or bad, beautiful or ugly.  What  if there is more than what you see on that painting? Did you ever take the time to seek the painters purpose? Did you ever take the time to create a relationship with the painter to know his purpose?

As it says in Jeremiah 29:13 “you will seek me and find me, when you search for me with all your heart.”

 

Are you willing to put that effort to get to know the painter and his painting’s purpose? We all have a purpose in this life each stroke of the painters brush was in purpose for a bigger plan .

Godbless

Dry bones live again

For the past weekend i have been feeling a bit under the weather and i haven’t really been myself.  I have felt as if i don’t fit in with what goes around in this world.  And old feelings come into my spirit and just brings me down, like thoughts such as “I don’t fit in with my friends” and actually byron and I were talking about this this weekend while we were in california. And for a little i felt better but it really hit me when i came back home from california. Until i read this passage that i cut which was revealed to me this morning when i was seeking for that light that would lift me up:

Ezekial 37:4-6 

4 He then told me to say: Dry bones, listen to what the Lord is saying to you,

5 “I the Lord God, will put breath in you , and once again you will live. 

6 I will wrap you with muscles and skin and breathe life into you. Then you will know that I am the Lord

after reading it i just felt so revived through His words that it erased some of the hurt that i felt.  He breathes in us new life as we go along this journey of LIFE.  We just need to seek God not just when were down or when were out we need to keep constant with our faith and trust in the Lord because without HIM we are nothing.  So again keep talking to him as you would with your wife or husband of best friend, we all need a relationship with him.  He wants us to get to know him and he want you to know that He loves you through anything.

May God bless you in everything you do

You need to be patient, in order to do the will of God and receive what he promises.
Hebrew 10:36

Jesus is my title

We need Jesus as our Lord and Savior is because we are totally depraved, corrupt, vile sinners. It has nothing to do with goodness which a lot of Christians believe that salvation is gained through good works or also can be refer to as legalism.  None of us are righteous. In Romans 3:10-12 says, “as it is is written: “There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God. They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; there is none who does good, no, not one.” We are all filthy, dirty creatures that are unworthy to God. We will not be considered as his children but an enemy unless we are covered by His Son’s righteousness. Romans 5:10 says, “For if, when were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!”  He draws us to Him by convicting us of our sin and then its by grace through faith in Jesus Christ we are saved. That’s why whenever you hear a preacher that speaks about sins you feel convicted that’s because God is telling you right at that moment to change and repent from your sins meaning turning away from them. The cross proved his love for us and we should all turn to Him that He may dwell in our hearts through faith. He is mighty to save. May God bless you with your faith.

Sometimes you feel great and other times you feel poor, but God does this so that you appreciate life more.

We may not understand what G O D ‘S plan is for us now, but he blesses you with these trials and tribulations to learn, not just about life, but about G O D and creating a grander relationship with G O D. It all comes together in the end so step down from your pedestal and listen to what G O D is giving to you. 

May God Bless you

These past few photos

were taken at the Rock and Worship Roadshow and let me tell you it was a blessing. To experience and see all these people praising God in such a way was just AMAZING!  Lately my relationship with Christ has just grown so much to the point where all inhibitions are gone.  I don’t have that feeling of being ashamed to call my self a Christian.  And I thank God for all these revelations and trials he has given because with out him and without them I wouldn’t experience this type of life. So in short I would like to say Thank you God for giving us this life

ALLELUIA!!!

Life offers so much opportunities and choices. But then most of us we tend to waste those opportunities because we make the wrong decisions. Our faith is always being tested no matter what the outcome is. As you can see in this video, a man who believes that his life is good and him professing as being a Christian shows that he truly knows Jesus Christ but in reality his actions does not show it. In his own perspective as being a true Christian is to be baptized, constantly going to church every Sunday and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior. All of those things are good but it is not enough. Many of us Christians are lacking with our faith and struggle to have a strong relationship with Jesus Christ. As it says in the bible, “faith without works is dead.”James 2:20 If we say we have faith but don’t show it then the power of God will not be revealed. Where is Jesus in your life? Do you acknowledge him constantly? Do you have a strong relationship with him? Our God will be alive if we apply his words into our lives. Our words does not really matter. It is our actions that will prove that our faith is real. Peace & God bless.

we are all desperate for Gods word and majestic work that we forget to be what God wants us to be, not just a toy replaying the same old song but a child learning glorifying his name as if it were his first time he has seen Gods glory. 

May God bless you in what ever you do.

Gods love
